Nice work on your G34! I see you replaced the factory extended slide stop with a normal one. I had to do the same with mine as my strong side thumb would ride it and prevent the slide from locking back on an empty mag. Ghost makes a forward positioned extended one that I may try out at a later date.
I thought about a grip reduction for my Gen 4 G34 to make it point like my 1911s, but decided to try the reversible route of cutting the bottom half off the included thick beavertail backstrap and install it on the gun. While not aesthetically pleasing as your grip reduction, it does point just like my 1911s with the same reach to the trigger. When shooting it, I don't even notice the bottom edge of the cut backstrap as it is located in the hollow of my palm.
As for mods, I installed a Ghost 3.3 connector with overtravel stop, Lighting Strike lightened striker, Glockworx striker spring, and Ameriglo sights. The front sight is their Pro-Glo night sight with an orange surround, while the rear sight is their plain black .180" wide notch with radiused corners. This sight combo works day or night and is very fast to acquire. Trigger pull at the center of the trigger is 3.5 pounds and no light strikes with Federal small pistol primers.
